§ 16031 District Board Powers

• •The board of directors is in charge of making decisions for the district.
• •They have the power to do things unless the law says someone else should do it.
• •This rule was added a long time ago, in 1953.

Imagine your school needs a new playground.

The school board (like the board of directors) gets to decide if they will build it, where it goes, and how to pay for it. They’re the bosses unless the law says someone else should decide.
